Savings Sites

Priceline
has created an interesting marketing concept. The buyer bids for a price level, while
sellers match the bid. In the case of hotel rooms, Lower bids typically return hotels that
are farther from attractions, or have less amenities. Priceline
has good search features to help narrow the limit of your frugality, while searching
for bargains. They also offer rental cars, airline tickets, and new car deals. The
best deals are the hotel room searches, but very soon they will offer gas savings. Drivers bid online, listing several
stations along their typical commute, then these stations bid for the lowest price. Priceline
locks in the price and if it goes lower, you get the difference, so you can't loose.
Billing goes through Priceline,
and you can bid for just one tankfull. The only catch is a $3.00 use fee each month
you use the service. Click

E-Save is a well designed and easy to use refund
site. This site allows you to quickly seach and select big named grocery items, then print
out a shopping list. You have about two weeks to purchase the items and an extra week to
send your reciepts into E-Save. E-Save fills in all the paper work and then
promptly sends you a refund check. Our clandestine test transaction was nearly flawless,
but we included a reciept that was not within the allotted time frame. A polite e-mail
explained our error, but they allowed the refund anyway as a onetime courtesy. a few days
later we were sent a check for $5.25 from purchasing Cheerios cereal, Huggies diapers,
Heinz Ketchup, and Kraft Minute Rice. All routine grocery purchases. In addition, they
allow reciepts from wholesale warehouse stores such as Costco. To make the process easier,
you can track the progress of your transactions entirely online. Just remember to
carefully read and follow their instructions to be assured of recieving your refund money.

Snapfish.com
will give you a FREE 35mm camera just for registering online. When this site opens
it will change the way you take pictures. First off, they send you a postage paid mailer
for your rolls of film and then they will process it for FREE. You only pay for the
postage costs of sending the full set of 4x6 Kodak processed photos back to you. On
top of that, they digitally process them for you to view immediately. Send the digital
images to friends or to use for your web sites or auctions. Here's the catch: Since they
save you money by using online sponsors, you must go to the password protected site to
view the photos or they will charge you a film development fee of $3.99. Still, FREE
camera, FREE Kodak developing, & FREE digital copies!
